I have a friend who had a massive stroke 2 weeks ago. He is still in the hospital in the Progressive Care Unit. He is still in a "fog" from the stroke, can say only a few words and has some paralysis of his right side. How soon should these symptoms start improving. There is very little improvement since his stroke two weeks ago, very minimial actually. Does anyone know if it is possible to recover from this? It looks really bad but I know people can make good progress after strokes but how long before we start seeing something?
**************************************** *****
I had my stroke almost 2 years ago, and I still don't know too much about strokes. I think his age has a big part to play in his recovery. I was only 22 when I had my stroke, and the doctors told my parents that I would die or be paralyzed. My parents told the preacher at our church, about my stroke, and the church prayed for me. To this day, I'm not sure if it was my youth, or a just a miracle from God that I'm alive and not paralyzed (after 3 or 4 months of not being able to move the left side of my body). I hope that he has a good recovery.
